Kobe becoming like 2013 Vince Carter would be a travesty. Ali-Holmes bad.

I do think it would be a shame to see Kobe play as a shell of himself. I hope he can comeback and at least have one really solid year.

I hated Larry Bird when I was a kid because I was a Dr. J guy. I remember rooting for him at the end as I saw him playing through pain to give his team any chance. Kind of feel the same way about Kobe now.
